Genes affected
SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 225 of the SCN4A protein (p.Arg225Gln). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal recessive congenital myopathy or myasthenic syndrome (PMID: 36099689). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 477431). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SCN4A protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg225 amino acid residue in SCN4A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with SCN4A-related conditions (PMID: 26700687, 36099689), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
